SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The CNA-100® Cinema Network Automation is a CINENET™ compatible
automation system specifically designed for the Motion Picture Theatre industry.
The system is modular in design, consisting of the operator interface and system
peripherals. The Main Computer and each peripheral device is defined by its
common functions and locations in the booth. The devices within the system
communicate with each other on a serial communications link. Automation
systems and remote stations distributed throughout the booth and other areas of
the multiplex communicate on a second serial communications link.
The CNA-100 operator interface is user friendly and self-intuitive. Once some
basic rules are learned you will be programming and running basic programs in
less than an hour.
To enhance the operation of the CNA-100 and provide a higher level of control,
the CINENET™ Gateway PC Card and Host software is available. This product
will provide a PC interface to the CNA-100 automations. The Host PC and
software will allow management to access programming, data logging and
diagnostic information from all systems connected to the network. Access to data
and system upgrade software will also be available via the modem/Internet.
This manual provides the installer and user with the necessary information to
install, setup and operate the CNA-100 automation system. The installer is
encouraged to read all sections of the manual before proceeding with the
installation. If while installing or operating the CNA-100 automation you find
any part of the manual to be unclear or incorrect, please let us know. Call
STRONG INTERNATIONAL at (800)-424-1215 if help or additional

CNA-100 Automation Manual
System Overview
Product Description
The CNA-100 Cinema Network Automation System is a microprocessor based
computer automation designed to automate all aspects of the theatre presentation.
The major features of the CNA-100 are listed below.
Local I/O Network (LIN)
Each system component is connected to the network and communicates via a five
wire cable. This cable provides the serial communications as well as power to the
termination panels. This is called the "Local I/O Network"or “LIN”. The
standard devices that make up the system are the:
1. Console Termination Panel
2. Booth Termination Panel
3. CNA-100 Control Panel
The CNA-100 Automation Control Panel contains the Main or Master Computer
of the system and each I/O device is connected to it via a serial communications
link. The devices are connected in a “daisy-chain” method and can then be
distributed within the booth according to their logical location.
Local Synchronous Network (LSN)
The "Local Synchronous Network" is a two-wire data link that will support CNA100/150 and CNA-200 Automations, remote stations, synchronous
communications for interlock, network copy functions and a Host PC. The
automation systems are connected together in a “daisy-chain” configuration,
which allows the transmission line to continue from one unit to the next.
System Components
The standard components that make up the automation system LIN are described
in the following sections.
Control Panel (Operator Interface)
The automation controller and front panel interface is a self-contained unit that
can either be surface mounted to the booth wall or can be mounted in a standard
19" rack. The unit will house the main CPU, the front panel interface and the
power supply for local and remote power for the Local I/O Network.
Communications to the local I/O devices and other remote CNA-100 systems is
accomplished via two serial ports on the Main CPU:

System Overview
CNA-100 Automation Manual
The Local I/O Network (LIN) Com Port - This is the interface for the Local I/O
Network that will support the Main I/O Interface, the Console and Booth
Termination Panels and other auxiliary devices.
The Local Synchronous Network (LSN) Com port - This is the interface for the
Interlock and Copy function between CNA-100 systems, Remote Monitors and
PC Host.
The front panel is used to setup, program and run the shows. It also displays error
and status messages to the user. The front panel incorporates up to nine manual
override switches used for emergency manual control. These are rocker type
switches and their general functions should be obvious to the operator. All
manual controls circumvent the electronic circuitry giving the user the ability to
control the major functions in the event of an automation failure. The manual

SETUP
Please note at this point you should have completed the entire installation of the automation
system. If you have not, refer to the CNA Installation manual before proceeding.
Configuring the System
The LSN can support up to 64 devices (CNA-100/ 150s, CNA-200s, Remote
Status Monitors, dimmer control cards, and a Host Computer). Each device
will each require a unique Sync Id number. Id 0 is reserved for the Host
PC and Ids 1 through 63 are assigned to CNA-100s and other devices as
necessary. To keep things simple, assign the CNA-100 Ids starting at 1,
corresponding to the house number and working up. The Remote Monitor's
Ids, if used, should be assigned to the higher numbers starting at 62 and
working down. You may want to keep Id 63 reserved for the portable or
secondary host.
To set the Id number, first locate the eight position dip switch designated
SW1. See figure 2.

Status LEDs
There are three status LEDs on the 39325 Main CPU Board. These indicate the
status of the +5 volt power supply, the LSN and the LIN. Following are the three
conditions for the LIN and LSN LEDs:
Fast Blinking Rate: The CNA-100 computer is working and is communicating
properly.
Slow Blinking Rate: The CNA-100 computer is working, but is not
communicating.
Off: The CNA-100 computer has a problem.

Programming the CNA-100
Programming is accomplished with the Programming keys and the Program and
Cue numbers. The CNA-100 gives the user the ability to build and store up to 9
different programs. Each Program can use up to nine cues.
The following steps describe how to edit a program:
1. Press the PROGRAM EDIT key to activate the edit mode. The PROGRAM EDIT
LED will toggle "on". The CUE up and down arrow keys are enabled and the
PROGRAM and CUE displays will stop blinking if show is in progress.
2. Select the program to edit with the PROGRAM up or down arrow keys.
3. Program the Sound, Lens and Lights for each cue using the programming
keys. Program the Auxiliary outputs (OUT 1 through OUT 4) if an ‘Aux
Board’ is connected to the system. One or more of these outputs can be on at
a time.
4. Use the SHOW END key to indicate the end of the program.
5. Select a different program to edit or press the PROGRAM EDIT key to deactivate edit mode. The PROGRAM EDIT LED will toggle "off". The PROGRAM
number and CUE number up and down arrow keys will be disabled and the
displays will slowly blink if the show is in progress.
Following are some simple rules to remember when programming:
1) Programming a SHOW END cue locks out subsequent cue numbers, keeping
you from scrolling to a larger cue number.
2) You may edit any program while a show is in progress (including the program
that is running).
3) When a show is in progress and you are not in the PROGRAM EDIT mode the
PROGRAM and CUE number up and down arrow keys are disabled.
4) Use of HOST PC and software will provide the most user-friendly interface
to the CNA-100 as well as provide access to multiple options not available
through the keypad and 7 segment display interface on the front panel.
Pressing the STOP and START keys simultaneously will escape a running show,
this can be used while troubleshooting or installing the system.

The INTERMISSION and CURTAIN CALL Keys
These are two special programming keys that allow the user to easily program a
Show Intermission and a Curtain Call. The INTERMISSION KEY is used to program
a show intermission at the selected cue. The cue then initiates the intermission
sequence as follows:
Changeover Close
Lights
Sound
Curtain Close
--------------------------7 second delay
--------------------------Xenon Lamp Off
Projector Motor Off
Slide Projector On
The Intermission is terminated and the show is re-started either by a START input
(remote or local) or a CUE input (remote or local). If the show is re-started by a
START input, only the projector motor and lamp are turned on. The next film cue
will initiate the show start sequence. The show start sequence is as follows:
START
--------------------------Xenon Lamp On
Projector Motor On
--------------------------Cue n
--------------------------Lens/Masking
Lights
Curtain Open
--------------------------7 second delay
--------------------------Slide Projector Off
--------------------------1 second delay

If the show is re-started with a CUE input, there is no need for a show start cue.
The show start sequence is as follows:

The "Curtain Call" function will issue a curtain close at a selected cue. For
example, suppose you wanted your curtains to close and the end of your trailers
and open back up at the start of your feature presentation. You would place a cue
at a distance before the end of the trailer that is equal to the curtain close time and
another cue at the beginning of the feature. The sequence of events are as
follows:
Cue n (with Curtain Call)
--------------------------Curtain Close

Operating the CNA-100
In the "Ready to Run" state, the FILM PRESENCE LED will be "off", and the START
LED will be blinking. Select the program 1 through 9, that you want to run with
the up/down arrow keys. Press the START switch to start the show. The START
LED will toggle "on".
When a show is running, the current states of the Sound, Lens, Lights and
Auxiliary will be shown with the LEDs "on". The cue number displayed is the
next cue the CNA-100 is waiting to see.
Soft Manual Overrides
During run mode, pressing any of the Sound, Lens, Lights or Auxiliary keys will
drive the output to that state. Note: This will not alter the saved program. At the
next cue the program will override any manual changes. This option is only
available when the internal DIP switches are configured to allow soft overrides.
Synchronous Operation
The CNA-100 systems are capable of running film synchronously in a multiprojector booth. The CNA-100 can be programmed for any one of nine sync
loops. This allows for up to nine different sync loops on the network at one time.
Pressing the SYNC key will activate the sync operation and disable the up/down
arrow keys. (This prevents the machine from joining another sync loop that may
be running and causing a fault on those machines when it drops off the loop.) To
change the SYNC LOOP number, press the SYNC switch to deactivate. Set the loop
number with the up and down arrow keys and press the SYNC switch again to
activate. The LED on the SYNC switch indicates whether sync mode is active or
not.
To run in sync the following conditions must be true:
1. A sync cue must be added to the beginning of the film. This is the first cue
that is seen by the automation. It acts to initiate the start up sequence for each
machine.
2. Sync Mode on each automation in the loop must be enabled.
3. The sync loop number on each automation in the loop must be the same.
To begin a movie, insure that the sync cue is positioned somewhere before the cue
detector on the first machine. Press the [START] switch on any machine in the
loop. All projectors will start simultaneously. As the sync cue passes through
each projector, the show start sequence will initiate.
At the end of the show each machine will shut down independently as the tail of
the film runs out of the projector. On endless loop systems all projectors will
continue to run until the last machine sees the end cue. At that time all projectors
will shut down simultaneously.

System Status Messages
The CNA-100 contains a list of status messages that can be displayed due to
various internal or external conditions. Most of these messages displayed indicate
system faults. There are also some internal power up and reset diagnostic
messages, most of which will not and should not be displayed under normal
operating conditions.
Fault Condition Messages
The Fault Condition messages can be divided into three categories: Internal
memory faults, run-time faults and failsafe faults.
Memory Faults
The internal memory faults are generated when there is a "checksum" error.
Briefly, a checksum is an arithmetic sum of the contents of memory that is stored
in the memory itself and is re-computed and checked each time the CNA-100 is
powered up. Each of the Programs (1 through 9) and the System Parameters have
a checksum. The fault messages are displayed and "blinked" rapidly on the three
digital displays.

If any of the Program memory faults are displayed on power up, clear the fault
by pressing the ALARM CANCEL key. Press the PROGRAM EDIT key to enter the
edit mode. Cursor to the program that has the checksum error. Scroll through the
program to verify it. If all the steps look okay, press any key to re-calculate the
checksum. Press the PROGRAM EDIT key again and cycle power to verify that
there are no other checksum errors.
A System Parameters memory fault will be displayed if there is a checksum error.
This error must be cleared from the Host PC, by copying the system parameters
from the Host Program to the CNA-100. If you are not using a Host PC, the
system will be using the default parameters and can not issue a System
Parameters Checksum Fault.

Run-Time Faults
These three messages will be displayed if there are the following communications
faults.
Message
Description
LIn
LSI
LSC
Local I/O Network Fault
Local Sync Interlock Fault
Local Sync Communications Timeout Fault
The Local I/O Network Fault is caused due to a loss in communications with a
Local I/O Network device or another network problem. This could be the Booth
Termination Panel, Console Termination Panel or other I/O Network device or a
wiring problem.
A Local I/O Network fault will cause the CNA-100 to display "L I n". This fault
will cause a shutdown during a show or prevent a show start between shows.
This fault is latched and you are required to press the ALARM CANCEL key to clear
the fault. Although this will cancel the fault and allow a show to start, there is a
problem with the Local I/O Network or one of the devices and it must be repaired.
A Local Sync Interlock Fault is caused when either a master or one of the slaves
in the sync loop has lost it’s sync input (sync switch). All CNA-100s on the sync
loop will display “L S I” and sound their alarms. This message will also be
displayed if one of the units on the loop had a “watchdog reset”. If this was the
case, all units will display this message except for the one that had the watchdog
reset.
A Local Sync Communications Fault is caused when there is a loss of
communications with a unit on the sync loop. This could be due to a loss of
power of the master or one of the slaves on the loop. In this case all units on the
sync loop would display “L S C” except for the one that lost its power. This fault
can also be caused by defective wiring, such as an open or short on the LSN
communications link.

CNA-100 Automation Manual
Sync Interlock Failsafe Fault

that is preventing the interlock loop from resuming a show. The following
message is displayed to indicate this fault.

Not Ready To Run
The Not Ready To Resume Fault indicates that the automation cannot start a show
because a least one of the CNA-100 remotes are not in the “Ready to Resume”
condition.
The Need Master To Resume Fault indicates that there is no master. The master
may be lost if the communication wires are disconnected, power is lost or the
sync input (sync switch) is not enabled at the master.
The Not Ready To Run Fault indicates that the automation cannot start a show
because a least one of the CNA-100 remotes are not in the “Ready to Run”
condition
Event and Show Logs
When running Host software the CNA-100 is capable of sending data over the
LSN to a Host PC. This is a historical record of automation activity including
faults, starts, stops, cues and other occurrences. Show logs contain data
specifically about a particular show, this data can include show numbers, events
and times that the events occurred, total down time, and many other important
parameters. See the Host manual for more information on event and show logs.
Program and Configuration Copy Functions
The Host software package allows the user to copy individual programs and
configuration details from and to your CNA-100. Due to limitations set by the
front panel’s attributes, the Host package must be used to access these functions.
Supervisory
Supervisory configuration is only accessible via the Host program, system
variables such as lighting levels for the QDC-400 and sound configuration on the
RVC-5, as well as system settings including Delays, password, and output
configurations can all be set up here. See the Host user guide for further
information on these functions.

messages should be displayed at power up:
Message
Description

PUP
Version Number (2 seconds)
Checksum Number (2 seconds)
Power Up Reset (2 seconds)
These messages will be displayed in this order each time the CNA-100 is powered
up. Each message is displayed for about 2 seconds. The first message is the
software version number (version 2.15). The second is the software checksum
number, and the last message indicates to the user that it is a power up condition.
Additional Software
CineNet Host Software Package
The CNA-100 automation is optimally configured and used with the CineNet
HOST software package. The Host program allows setup, data transfer and
programming in a user-friendly format. Additional hardware and software is
required. First there must be a Host Computer, this can be any DOS-based PC
with either 1 free ISA slot or an RS-232 Serial port that is not in use, installed on
that PC there must be CineNet Host networking software. This software allows
the PC to interface with the CNA. The only additional piece of hardware required
is a network controller. This can be in the form of a ISA card installed in the PC,
or a convenient external package such as the VNC or PCI-64 network interface.
See the CineNet HOST user manual for further details on installation.
Host software provides Event logging, both LIN and LSN Network status,
configuration, and programming/ copy functions as described in previous
sections.
CineSuite Software Package
The CineSuite software package is a more advanced version of HOST software
including three software applications:
CineSuite Manager: This is the main user interface. When creating CNA
programs, settings CNA supervisory functions or monitoring CNA operations,
this is the application that will be used.
CineSuite Router: The CineSuite Router is used to manage traffic between the
various CineSuite applications. Users only need to set the client application to
point to the computer that has the CineSuite router running and it can then
communicate with all other clients connected to the same router.
Strong International
23
Setup
CNA-100 Automation Manual
CineNet Driver: This is the software application that connects the CNA Gateway
and automations to the computer.
The CineSuite software operates over TCP/IP communications protocol meaning
that it can be used in conjunction with the internet via a modem or any ethernet
connection. It allows remote access to the automation network and provides a
means of remotely monitoring devices on the LIN.
CineSuite Reporter software has a full color interface for quick identification of
remote problems. Reporter can also email status reports managerial personnel and
generate reports over long periods of time in order to quantify efficiency in staff
and equipment.
CineSuite similarly requires a Host PC and a hardware interface device. The Host
PC must be at least a 486/66Mhz running windows 95 or above. The CineSuite
package is constantly under development with new features being added
regularly. See the CineSuite Guide for additional information.

Timing Diagrams
Timing Diagrams for the CNA-100
The following Timing Diagrams show timer values, output configurations and cue
events for all the outputs. Timers and output configurations such as
pulsed/maintained, power up and fault conditions are defaulted on the CNA100, and can only be changed with the Host Program. These timing diagrams
can be extremely useful to help understand the operation and capabilities of the
CNA-100. The first timing diagram shows the “Standard Operation” from power
up to show end. Standard Operation implies a running a program with no
interruptions (stop or faults) or special effects (curtain call or intermission). The
defaults for each outputs are indicated in the last column of the timing diagram.
Default timer values and pulse durations are indicated in the bottom margin of the
timing diagram. The diagram indicates automatic and programmed outputs.
The second timing diagram shows the Fault/Stop Shutdown and Restart
Sequence. The area of interest is the shaded portion of the diagram. This shows
the default ‘Fault-to’ conditions:
Projector Motor and Lamp = OFF
Slide Projector = ON
Changeover = CLOSE
Sound = NON-SYNC
House Lights = UP
Stage Lights = UP
These default conditions can be configured in the CNA-100 Set-up Supervisory
section of the Host PC Program.
The third timing diagram shows the Intermission Stop Sequence. The area of
interest is the shaded portion of the diagram. At the Intermission cue the
Changeover and Curtain will close. Seven seconds later the Projector Motor will
shut off and the Slide Projector will turn on. Sound, Lights and Out 1, 2, 3, and 4
can be programmed for any state during the intermission. A Restart will start the
Projector Motor and a film cue will initiate the show start sequence.
The last timing diagram shows the Curtain Call Sequence. The area of interest is
the shaded portion of the diagram. At the Curtain Call cue, the curtain begins to
close. The ‘next’ cue will begin to open the curtain. The ‘curtain close time’ is
determined by the distance between the curtain call cue and the next film cue.
Sound, Lights and Out 1, 2, 3, and 4 can be programmed for any state during the
Curtain Call.

This version requires Host V1.003 and is compatible with CNA-200 V1.006.
1. Aux Output on Console Termination Board now follows "Slide Projector"
output.
2. Lens and Masking now support programmable "Power Up" default.
3. I/O Communications now "re-sends" setup data to I/O devices when
System Parameters is updated. (Sound C/O Pulse time.)
4. Added "(t)" and "©" to Sync protocol to indicate "Timed" or "Clock" Start
mode.
5. Stop key now works the same everywhere - forcing switch to "Show Hold"
mode (to other controls).
6. Added "Check Focus" beep to indicate Clock Start or Timed Start from
another control.
Version: 1.06
Checksum: 216
Date: 9/17/97
This version requires Host V1.004 and is compatible with CNA-200 V1.007.
1. Added support for newly designed MCD-35 Cue Detector for Local I/O
Network (LIN).
Note the CNA software "Auto Detects" the MCD-35 the first time it responds
to a poll. Once this board is detected the "Motion" and "Presence" inputs on
the Console Board are then ignored. It would be a good idea to leave the
Console Board inputs "open" rather than "shorted" to cause a fault in the event
that the MCD-35 board does not respond to polls on power up. (Not a
requirement, just a suggestion...)
2. Increased Motion Fault time from 2 seconds to 3 seconds.

2- SW 3-6 enables/ disables the RSM-10/ RCM-10's “Check Focus Delay” alarm.
Off enabled and On is disabled
3- Added programmable power up states for masking and Sound.
Added programmable Fault to settings for: Lens, Masking, Sound, House lights,
and Stage Lights. These are defined through the host program.
Made the CNA-100 more like the CNA-200 by reworking the feature start time
routine. Reworked the Call to log automatic Cue 0 event.
Bootloader Changes:

Initial bootloader used in CNA system.
1. Created this Boot Loader Program to load the following programs into
FLASH:
CNA-100 V2.05
CNA-150 V3.050
CNA-200 V1.016
2. This program uses LSN Network Device Type = 4 (CNABOOT).
3. Now supports LSN FLASH update Network commands ($40 to $43).

Addendum
Date: 5/9/2000
Version: 1.001
Checksum: 44570 (Base 10)
1. Moved "LDY #SWAPCNT" up 3 lines in Calculate Checksum routine
(CALCPCHK) to increase the rate the watchdog is toggled. Should not have been
a problem.
2. Now toggles watchdog in FL_PROGBK routine since a byte write may take as
long as 60 milliseconds
Date: 9/16/2002
Version: 1.010
Checksum: 44558 (Base 10)
Latest versions at this time:
CNA-100 V2.09
CNA-150 V3.090
CNA-200 V1.022
1. Changed "CPE SAVEP,Z" to "CPE 0,X" in FL_PROG routine to correctly
test for "POSSIBLE TIMEOUT OR JUST WENT DONE". The previous logic
might report a write as failed. The logic must be currently taking the earlier
branches - Since there were no reports of this failure from the field at this time.
Date:10/7/2002
Version: 1.020
Checksum: 61822 (Base 10) $F17E
Latest versions at this time:
CNA-100 V2.09
CNA-150 V3.090
CNA-200 V1.022
1. Rewrote FL_ERASE routine. The original interpretation of the multiple sector
erase sequence was wrong - but worked with the FLASH parts at that time ("nonlettered": AM29F010). However the new parts (“lettered” AM29F010B) no
longer accept this interpretation. Basically, the "unlock" portion of the command
should only be issued once, then within 50 microseconds write the Sector Erase
command ($30) to multiple sectors.
2. Reworked the comments for FL_ERASE - Indicating it should only be used to
erase a single sector.
3. Moved call to “PROTFY” in main loop down a few lines from just after “JSR
FL_ERASE” to just after “JSR FL_WAITE”. I don’t think this was a problem,
since this program runs in ram. This change should now let the “FL_ERASE”
routine correctly perform the FLASH Reset function if it is ever necessary.
4. Increased FLASH erase timeout from 15 to 20 seconds.
